Damian Lillard

Last season marked Lillard's first outside of Portland. After 11 seasons with the Trail Blazers, he was traded to Milwaukee, joining forces with Giannis Antetokounmpo. The season had its ups and downs, though the downs - including firing coach Adrian Griffin, Khris Middleton's injuries, and Lillard and Antetokounmpo being hurt in the playoffs - felt more pronounced given the team's expectations. As expected, Lillard's usage took a hit. His 28.4 percent usage rate was his lowest since his third year in the league. Not only that, but his efficiency was below his standards, with the All-Star averaging 24.3 points on 42/35/92 shooting. On a positive note, Lillard appeared in 73 games - his most since 2018-19. He also averaged 7.0 assists to only 2.6 turnovers, which was tied for the second-best assist-to-turnover ratio of his career. Managers who selected Lillard in the first round didn't get what they hoped for, but he was still able to scrape together a top-20 finish in total eight-category fantasy value. Lillard and those around him have cited the change in scenery and disruptive events in his personal life for his down season. However much stock managers want to put into that will be a big determining factor in Lillard's fantasy value. But the reality of Lillard entering his age-34 season and no longer being the No. 1 option on his team isn't up for interpretation.
